SPLIT (COMPLETED)

don't let go

Chaeyoung was going to feed Jungkook the last bit of his bingsu when suddenly her phone makes repeating noises inside her handbag. The explosive sound from her phone makes her panic as she feels guilty to disturb others in the restaurant. So, she takes it out from the handbag as quick as she can to see who is disturbing her at that moment.

Because of that, Jungkook feeds himself the last spoon of the dessert before he sees Chaeyoung's eyes widened as she looks at her phone.

"What's wrong, Chae? You look shocked.", he asks as he swallows down the last banana slice in his mouth.

"Jin oppa.", Chaeyoung simply answers as she keeps scrolling her phone.

"Seokjin hyung? Why? What's wrong with him?", Jungkook has not heard anything about him since the last time they met last week. Seokjin told him that he will be going for a one week long mission in Daegu and asked him to look out for the girls while he is away. Since then, Jungkook does not hear anything from him as he left right after finding out about Chaeyoung and him.

Chaeyoung frowns before she looks up to Jungkook, "He said thanks for wishing him for his birthday today."

Jungkook nods slowly as he learns the news from her.

"And he said he's back and will go to my house to surprise Jisoo unnie. He told me not to come home and I can go to your place instead. Why is he...I'm going to call him.", Chaeyoung keeps on reading the messages that Seokjin sent to her.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait...Chaeyoung...put down your phone.", Jungkook says as he slowly touched her hand wanting her to do as he says.

Unwillingness is seen in her eyes but she did as told when Seokjin does not answer her call. "Why didn't he answer me?!", she clicks her tongue as she puts her phone on the table.

"Maybe..he already met Jisoo noona.", Jungkook replies as he looks at how grumpy she gets with Seokjin ignoring her call.

"He usually answers me even when he's with her. He will answer it right away even if there's nothing to worry about.", Chaeyoung contradicts with a pout.

"Maybe...he knows you're with me. So, he got nothing to worry about you and only look forward to surprise noona.", Jungkook responds to her with a smile.

Her eyes narrowed with annoyance hearing his answer.

"Not funny, Kookie..", her serious tone does not make Jungkook scared at all. Contrastingly, he smiles while she stares at him in disbelief.

"Cute.", he makes a sudden remark which makes Chaeyoung's forehead to frown at him. "You're cute when you're angry like this. I like the way you call me Kookie but you keep that grumpy face at the same time.", he explains even though she does not ask him to.

Her reaction next surprised him a bit. She stands up quietly making him to also stands from his chair. He holds her hand to stop her from leaving thinking that she is very angry with him.

"I'm just going to the washroom, Kookie-ya. Can you let me go?", she asks as she turns to see him and looks at his hand that holds hers like he is not going to let her leave.

"Oo..okay. But, don't be too long in there.", he says as he lets her hand free.

Then, Chaeyoung shows her palm of hand at him and mouthed 'five minutes' before she walks to the washroom area.

Right after Chaeyoung is done using a cubicle in the washroom, she goes to check herself up on the mirror for a while. When she is fixing her hair, she smiles remembering the small argument she had with Jungkook. She shakes her head when she realized that Seokjin is the topic that made them argued earlier.
